Chapter 0067 Global AI Challenge
On the three days of New Year's Day, Chen Xu was basically going to the building materials market with his father.
For example, floors, wall cloths, toilets, lamps, doors, windows, tables, chairs, sofas, etc., and home appliances are also selected. This is booked at JD offline physical stores.
In fact, there was a mentor throughout the process, and his father checked it, it didn't matter whether Chen Xu went or not, but this gave him a sense of participation in building a new home.
In addition, while his father was running in the building materials market, he really had to sign up for a driver's license with his mother. Every night, the couple were working hard to learn theoretical knowledge, so he also bought a desktop computer for them to practice.
I returned to Zhonghai on the morning of the second morning and arrived almost 12 o'clock.
I went to the company in Dehong Building first.
The company has hired two more editors, and now, including Yang Haidong, there are a total of 7 people.
After checking the company's daily operations, Chen Xu returned to school after no problems.
As soon as I arrived in class in the afternoon, Ji Qinglin came to find him and said excitedly: "Hey Chen Xu, do you know that the New Year's Day virus was cracked by our China Overseas Network Security Company, called Xingjian Network Security Company. Now the whole network is in full swing!
The engineers of this company are so awesome. They can actually track the data packet address in front of so many mobile phone security providers."
Chen Xu said "disdainfully": "It's just a waste of luck! I really think that the engineers of 360 and Tengxun are vegetarians, but they just didn't take it seriously."
As soon as Chen Xuhua finished speaking, Liu Zhuoran, the four-eyed boy sitting in front, turned around and said, "Damn Chen Xu, are you talking about human language? How many years have you learned computers in vain? Finding the package address in the vast ocean of data is something that ordinary engineers can do? This is definitely a master of data security!"
Ji Qinglin nodded and agreed, "No, this engineer is definitely not an ordinary person, I'm afraid he is three points better than those in the Ministry of Information Security."
Liu Zhuoran sneered: "Don't think of those people as amazing. They are just some old antiques in the computer industry, and they all master some outdated things. Now that computer technology is changing with each passing day, combined with artificial intelligence, if you say something bad, their true level may not even be able to catch up with Zhang Hao!"
Zhang Hao is their computer "great master" of this class. He represented Dongda University in many computer competitions in China Overseas and even the whole country. Although he has never won a ranking, his level is much better than that of ordinary students.
Ji Qinglin said: "It's a bit exaggerated if you can't compare to Zhang Hao. After all, they are all well-known figures in the computer industry, and they must still have a theoretical level. But after spending a long time in poverty, I don't know how much hands-on ability there is."
Liu Zhuoran did not continue to argue and said, "By the way, the AI interest group is recruiting team members. How about we register for three-one?"
Chen Xu said strangely: "It's almost the Chinese New Year, why did you suddenly get an interest group? Also, do you understand it?"
"If you don't know what to be afraid of, go and apply first!" Liu Zhuoran said with a chuckle and said, "Don't look down on this interest group. Let me tell you that this is the ticket to the Global AI Challenge, and the prize is 1 million US dollars.
First of all, the registered interest groups must be a five-person system;
Then after layers of selection and elimination, they competed with teams with a total of 60 universities across the country.
Only by being in the top three are eligible to enter the global roster.
After that, he competed with hundreds of teams from more than 30 countries around the world.
The domestic sponsors of the challenge include Alibaba, Tencent, Toutiao, DreamWorks, Sohu, Meituan and other major group companies, as well as dozens of other technology companies.
Foreign companies such as Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Faebook, and Flix have participated.
If you can show your face in this challenge, it would be a dream to get the offer from these big global companies."
Ji Qinglin looked yearning when he heard this, but shook his head and said, "In terms of the development level of artificial intelligence in our school, let alone international and domestic, even the top three in China Overseas can't even be included."
"No matter what, sign up first. If you go on TV, you will be a bonus in the introduction when looking for a job in the future, right? After all, we are someone who has participated in the Global AI Challenge." Liu Zhuoran laughed himself as he said that.
After pausing, Liu Haoran said, "Hey, Chen Xu, I'll sign up for you too."
Chen Xu said: "It needs an assessment."
"Well, right! Just simply answer a few questions, nothing is difficult."
Chen Xu said: "Don't go."
He is writing an academic paper, and then he will guide Xiaobai to speed up the analysis of electronic light and strive to break through the ultimate password of natural language processing as soon as possible. How can he have time to participate in the Raushzi Challenge?
Liu Haoran said, "Oh, let's go play together. I heard that I have had a friendship with the business school, and then there will be many beauties coming to volunteer. If you don't go, I'm embarrassed to go alone."
"Really?" Ji Qinglin immediately became energetic when he heard that there was a beautiful woman, and then pulled Chen Xu and said, "Then help us sign up."
"Hey, I really won't go..."
"That's all..."
...
There was no class the next morning, and Chen Xu wrote an academic paper in the dormitory of Zizhu Huayuan.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Ji Qinglin called and asked him to go over to participate in the group admissions and answer questions.
Chen Xu didn't want to go, so Ji Qinglin kept urging him, but he had no choice but to agree.
The admissions assessment is held in the large conference room of the comprehensive building.
Chen Xu didn't expect that there were actually a lot of people who signed up for the competition. At first glance, there were crowds of people on the scene, and there were hundreds of people, ranging from freshman year to junior college. I am afraid that not one-third of the entire department will participate.
But thinking about it, artificial intelligence is so popular nowadays, as long as algorithm engineers have a similar level, they start at least 30k per month. Who wouldn’t think of trying to make faces and get some experience in such a national competition?
The meeting was chaired by two software engineering professors on site, and several other graduate students from the computer department were responsible for the review. The senior brother Cen Gang and Cen were also on the stage.
Chen Xu entered the conference room through the back door and found Ji Qinglin and the others. He saw more than a dozen classmates along the way.
"Why are you here? We'll be here soon." Liu Zhuoran pulled Chen Xu and sat down and complained in a low voice, then handed him a book, "Hey, hurry up and take a look, it's our turn later."
Chen Xu looked at the book in his hand and almost laughed out loud. It turned out to be "Godel, Escher, and Bach's collection of strange jades".
Just then, a senior brother on the stage shouted: "Ji Qinglin."
"Here you come!" Ji Qinglin, who was sitting on Chen Xu's left hand, stood up and replied loudly.
“If possible, in which direction do you want to study in the future?”
"unmanned."
"Oh, then do you know what technologies are involved in driverless driving?"
"It mainly includes sensor technology, which inputs information from the external environment into cloud data;
Road map technology, planning action paths and patterns based on map data;
Vehicle control technology, car drive and output action…”
Ji Qinglin seems to have done his homework. When it comes to the knowledge of driverless driving, he is very knowledgeable and orderly. People who don’t know think he really likes driverless driving.
"Okay. Next... Liu Zhuoran."
Liu Zhuoran is similar to Ji Qinglin, and he also said that he likes driverless driving. Then the senior brother on the stage asked another similar knowledge point.
Although Liu Zhuoran stuttered in his answer, he finally explained it in a complete way.
"Okay. The next one is... Chen Xu."
Just like most ordinary people, Chen Xu is the kind of transparent person in the class. He doesn't like to show off, his grades are ordinary, his appearance is ordinary, he doesn't play basketball well, he doesn't sing well, he doesn't have a crush on girls, and even he has been named by the teacher in class since he was a child and answered questions in class at a very small number of times. If it disappears one day, it will take a long time for the classmates to think about it before they remember that there is such a person.
It was just such a person who was rarely named in public today.
"Yeah, here we come." Chen Xu stood up and replied, feeling a little nervous.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes looked over in the conference room. Several classmates in the same class stared at his side for a while before they remembered who he was.
“If possible, in which direction do you want to study in the future?”
Chen Xuding calmed down and said, "Let's process natural language."
The senior brother on the stage asked: "Why? Do you have any opinions on natural language processing?"
The senior brother on the stage did not make things difficult for him. The questions he asked were very general. Just say a few words and then praise the business prospects of natural language processing.
However, what Chen Xu thought was that there were so many people on the scene, I couldn’t be too embarrassed, I must answer seriously.
Then he pondered for a moment and said: "Because there is a very close connection between artificial intelligence and the development of new languages, there has been a clear trend in the past few decades to absorb new discoveries into new languages.
One of the keys to understanding and constructing intelligence lies in the continuous development and improvement of language.
So I wonder if I can design a programming language that allows for some inaccuracy, and a translation program that can translate it to a low level?
Its purpose is to guess the programmer's intentions.
For this flexible language, I think the following two situations may occur…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
Chen Xu talked endlessly and said all the thoughts and learnings during this period. The professors, senior brothers and classmates on the stage were basically confused at this time.
They could barely understand the front, but when they arrived, they were completely like listening to the heavenly books...
